Publication Metadata only Comment on: Actinomycotic Infection of the Abdominal Wall Mimicking a Malignant Neoplasm by Yi et al.(2012-12-01) Kadioglu, HÜSEYİN; Ersoy, YELİZ EMİNE; Bozkurt, SÜLEYMAN; Memmi, NAİM; CIPE, Gokhan; Gucin, ZÜHAL; MUSLUMANOGLU, Mahmut; KADIOĞLU, HÜSEYİN; ERSOY, YELIZ EMINE; BOZKURT, SÜLEYMAN; MEMMİ, NAİM; GÜCİN, ZÜHALPublication Metadata only Does adrenaline spraying over thyroidectomy area reduce bleeding?(2014-01-01) AYSAN, Erhan; MERIC, Aysenur; Kadioglu, HÜSEYİN; CENGIZ, Merve B.; Bozkurt, SÜLEYMAN; Memmi, NAİM; CIPE, Gokhan; MUSLUMANOGLU, Mahmut; ERSOY, YELIZ EMINE; AYŞAN, MUSTAFA ERHAN; MERİÇ HAFIZ, AYŞENUR; KADIOĞLU, HÜSEYİN; BOZKURT, SÜLEYMAN; MEMMİ, NAİMBackground: Means to prevent and control intra-or postoperative bleeding remain a topic of utmost importance in thyroidectomy. In this randomised clinical trial, we used adrenaline spraying to see if it helps bleeding control and reduces drainage and hematoma formation after thyroidectomy. Methods: After total thyroidectomy, 1 mg/ml adrenaline solution in 10 ml saline was sprayed all over the operation area by a syringe in 40 patients of -Adrenaline (+) Group-. In the other 40 patients in -Adrenaline (-) Group-, only standart total thyroidectomy was performed. Drainage amounts of 24 hours were recorded. Results: Among 80 patients, 66 (82.5%) were female and 14 (17.5%) were male. The daily drainage amounts of the Adrenaline (+) Group were found statistically significantly lower than the Adrenaline (-) Group (p<0.05). In both of the groups, thyroid volumes were significantly correlated with the drainage amounts. -p- values were 0.008 and <0.001 in Adrenaline (+) and Adrenaline (-) Groups, respectively. Conclusions: Preliminary experience using adrenaline has been encouraging and it is useful as an adjunct to thyroid surgery in order to prevent hemorrhagia and give up drain placement. But prospective randomized trials using adequate patient numbers are still needed to validate efficacy and safety.Publication Open Access Diffusion MRI on lymph node staging of gastric adenocarcinoma(2015-06-01) HASBAHCECI, Mustafa; Akcakaya, ADEM; Memmi, NAİM; TURKMEN, Ihsan; Cipe, Gokhan; Yildiz, PELİN; Arici, DİLEK SEMA; MUSLUMANOGLU, Mahmut; AKÇAKAYA, ADEM; MEMMİ, NAİM; YILDIZ, PELİN; ARICI, DILEK SEMAObjective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of diffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in preoperative assessment of metastatic lymph nodes of gastric cancer. Methods: A total of 23 gastric cancer patients with a mean age of 59.4±10.9 years were analyzed. Lymph nodes were grouped as perigastric lesser curvature (Group Ia), perigastric greater curvature (Group Ib), D1+/D2 lymph nodes (Group II). Identification of histologically metastatic lymph nodes by diffusion weighted MRI was regarded as the main outcome. Results: A total of 1,056 lymph nodes including 180 histologically proven metastatic lymph nodes were dissected. Although diffusion weighted MRI could identify the metastatic lymph nodes in 18 out of 23 patients (77.8%), only 69 of total 1,056 nodes (6.53%), either metastatic or non-metastatic, could be detected. There was no correlation between histopathology and diffusion weighted MRI with regard to lymph node groups (P>0.05 for all). Overall accuracy was calculated as 69.56, 65.21 and 52.17 for Groups II, Ib and Ia lymph nodes, respectively. Apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values could not be helpful to differentiate metastatic lymph nodes (P=0.673). Conclusions: Diffusion weighted MRI has low accuracy to detect or to differentiate metastatic and non-metastatic lymph nodes based on their ADC values in gastric cancer.Publication Open Access Unpredictable behavior of breast phyllodes tumors(2014-09-01) Akcakaya, ADEM; KOC, B.; EROZGEN, F.; Memmi, NAİM; HOT, S.; YILDIZ, M. K.; GUCIN, ZÜHAL; ADAS, G.; Kemik, Özgür; AKÇAKAYA, ADEM; MEMMİ, NAİM; GÜCİN, ZÜHAL– OBJECTIVE: Phyllodes Tumor is a rare fibroepithelial breast tumor with variable malignant potential. These tumors that currently accepted nomenclature are benign, borderline and malignant according to the World Health Organization. It tends to behave in a benign way but it may undergo a malignant transformation. The purpose of this study was to present our Case load of phyllodes tumor, and evaluate the management and follow-up the behavior of these tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 36 patients with phyllodes tumor were treated in Bezmialem Vakif University and Okmeydani Training and Research Hospitals analyzed retrospectively. Demographics, presenting symptoms, history, local examination, preoperative clinical diagnosis, treatment, postoperative histopatology, followup period were evaluated retrospectively and studied. RESULTS: A total of 36 patients treated for phyllodes tumor were analyzed. Mean age of the patients was 38 (14-79) and all were females. The presentation of the patients was breast lump in all cases, either as a primary or recurrent lump presentation. The right and left breast were affected 58% and 42% respectively. 34 of these 36 cases are briefly mentioned in this paper but the two cases, one with sarcomatous malignant transformation and the other with fatal metastatic phyllodes tumor in an adolescent female are discussed in detail. The mean duration of the symptomatic mass was 9.8 ± 7.3 months (range 0.5 to 24). CONCLUSIONS: Phyllodes tumor is a type of tumor that may be benign or malignant. The type with malignant features may be fatal. The tumors diagnosed as benign may transform and become malignant because of unknown reasons and may be an aggressive tumor.Publication Open Access Ischemia Modified Albumin Can Predict Necrosis at Incarcerated Hernias(2013-01-01) Kadioglu, HÜSEYİN; Omur, Dilek; Bozkurt, SÜLEYMAN; FERLENGEZ, Ekrem; Memmi, NAİM; Ersoy, YELİZ EMİNE; CIPE, Gokhan; Muslumanoglu, Mahmut; KADIOĞLU, HÜSEYİN; BOZKURT, SÜLEYMAN; MEMMİ, NAİM; ERSOY, YELIZ EMINEPurpose. To evaluate the predictive effect of IMA in incarcerated hernias. Methods. Three groups (𝑛=7) of rats were operated. Group I aimed to mimic incarceration, group II aimed the strangulation, and group III was the sham group. IMA and LDH measurements were made. Results. IMA levels were significantly higher in strangulation mimicking group and IMA levels were normal at postoperative 6th hour in incarceration mimicking group. LDH levels were significantly higher in both incarceration and strangulation mimicking groups. Conclusion. IMA seems to be an effective marker in incarcerated hernias to predict necrosis. But we need further studies to generalise this hypothesis.Publication Metadata only Is concomitant cholecystectomy with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy safe?(2014-12-01) COŞKUN, HALİL; HASBAHCECI, M; BOZKURT, SÜLEYMAN; CIPE, G; Malya, FATMA ÜMİT; Memmi, NAİM; KARATEPE, O; Akçakaya, ADEM; MUSLUMANOGLU, M; COŞKUN, HALIL; BOZKURT, SÜLEYMAN; MALYA, FATMA ÜMİT; MEMMİ, NAİM; AKÇAKAYA, ADEMPublication Open Access Perforated gastrointestinal stromal tumor in the jejunum: A rare cause of acute abdomen(2012-12-01) Memmi, NAİM; CIPE, Gokhan; BEKTASOGLU, HÜSEYİN KAZIM; TOYDEMIR, Toygar; Kadioglu, Huseyn; Bozkurt, SÜLEYMAN; Buyukpinarbasili, NUR; KARATEPE, Oguzhan; MUSLUMANOGLU, Mahmut; MEMMİ, NAİM; BEKTAŞOĞLU, HÜSEYİN KAZIM; BOZKURT, SÜLEYMAN; BÜYÜKPINARBAŞILI, NURGastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are highly frequent mesenchymal tumors of the digestive tract, which mainly affect the stomach and small intestine. GISTs frequently exist with unclear symptoms. Their initial clinical presentation as acute abdomen due to their perforation is particularly rare. In the present study we report a case of a 59-year-old male presenting with acute abdomen. The final diagnosis revealed a small bowel perforation due to GIST. In this paper, we report the clinical manifestation as well as computed tomography and histopathological findings helpful for the accurate diagnosis of this rare complication of GIST. Emergency laparotomy and complete resection of tumor are essential. Following surgical resection, adjuvant tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy should be considered for prevention of early recurrence.Publication Metadata only Role of obesity and abdominal shape morphometric features to predict postoperative complications and quality of lymph node dissection of gastrectomy for gastric cancer(2017-01-01) HASBAHCECI, MUSTAFA; Mehdi, Elnur; Malya, FATMA ÜMİT; Kunduz, ENVER; Memmi, NAİM; Yigman, SAMET; Akcakaya, ADEM; MALYA, FATMA ÜMİT; KUNDUZ, ENVER; MEMMİ, NAİM; YIĞMAN, SAMET; AKÇAKAYA, ADEMObesity and abdominal shape morphometric features have been thought to be independent risk factors for surgical outcomes after gastrectomy.
